Aging of the face is inevitable. As we age, the facial muscles become slacker and the skin on the face becomes less elastic and loose, creating folds and lines.
A facelift or "rhytidectomy" is a procedure that can address these problems by firming and tightening the skin of the face and neck
A face-lift generally requires an overnight stay in the hospital. The operation itself lasts around three to four hours and is usually done under general anesthesia.
A typical facelift involves an incision that starts at the hairline (temple) extending down to the top of the ear, round the front of the ear to the ear lobe and into the hairline around the back of the ear.
The skin is then carefully separated from the underlying muscles of the face. Excess fat is removed and the muscles are tightened
Then the skin is lifted up and pulled back. Excess skin is trimmed and the wound closed with sutures.
There are several variations on this classic surgery and additional incisions can be made in the neck, eyelids and brow line.
There are several potential complications associated with this surgery that should be discussed with a surgeon prior to surgery.作者: 徐锋 时间: 2008-2-9 09:43
